NEW FEATURES OF THE DSP6001
Magtrol’s new Model DSP6001 Dynamometer Controller is an upgraded version of the DSP6000,
providing superior motor testing capabilities by using state-of-the-art digital signal processing
technology. Designed for use with any Magtrol Hysteresis, Eddy-Current or Powder Brake
Dynamometer, Magtrol In-Line Torque Transducer or auxiliary instrumentation, the DSP6001 both
controls the dynamometer and provides digital readouts on the front panel. The features that make
the DSP6001 unique include:
• Two Channels - Enables unit to support a combination of up to two testing instruments with
independent or tandem configurations.
• Built-In Alarm System - To caution the user when problems occur, there are automatic
electrical and temperature alarms programmed into the unit. Also inherent to the unit are
optional power, speed, torque, air flow, water flow and external input alarms that become
active when enabled by the user.
• Torque/Speed Analog Outputs - Able to interface with a data acquisition system or strip
chart recorder.
• Digital Filter - Removes undesired noise from torque signals.
• Cross Loop Function - Allows closed loop control of a brake via the torque transducer.
• Saving - Allows user to save programmed values within their configurations.
